STAOAQI was typically invoked when someone asked a question that would be irresponsible to answer over the internet. For instance, "How do I do a flying upside down tornado kick?" or "How do I throw a Chi Blast like they do on Dragon Academy Shadow Ninjas?"

It stands for, Seek The Advice Of A Qualified Instructor. Originally, it was meant to get people to seek live classes instead of just trying to learn krotty over the internet. But, it got overused to the point of being dismissive, so it's not really the done thing anymore.
